Well
hello there, nice to be back with you on quite the sunny surprise of a pday
here in Hamburg.
So
you’re wondering what I did this week? Most likely not, but you get to find out
anyways. Probably the highlight of my week was the beginning. After having some
meetings and an interview, we hopped on a train towards Braunschweig, where the
other one had exchanges with the Turkish speaking elder there, Elder Miller,
from Gilbert Arizona. Unfortunately for him, he went to Higley High School, but
as we talked more we found out we were at the same music festival about 3
summers ago, pretty neat. Anyways, he was a legend but more importantly was
that I saw my treasure Elder Hofeling, the only person on this living earth to
have taken more L‘s at a ZoKo than thought humanly possible. He is all over the
keyboard. We had quite the fun time catching up after all these years since the
days of the reign of the Oldenburg district. We were also blessed to take part
in their District meeting, which includes a district of literally only legends.
We’ve got Elder Searle, the fearless „1 goal is enough“ legend district leader, then
his companion the one and only Elder Wehrend, from whom myths are written, wie
herrlich sind die Beine, amazing man. Then we had the other two that I’ve
previously described, and that was just the perfect recipe for an amazing
district meeting, and rest of our exchange.

On
our way back home one day we were waiting for our S Bahn to take us home to
Harburg, as the train across from us kinda stays at the platform for longer
than usual. Then come 2 Deutsche Bahn Security people, who go in to the Bahn and rip
out these two dudes who didn’t want to leave that train. At one point they were
being carried by the back of the pants, no way that didn’t hurt, and after that
the security brought out like 3 empty large bottles of vodka. Afterwards the
guys kinda just gave up and decided to just sleep on the ground next to the
train, probably their next best idea.

Besides
that, we had an English lesson with Rebecca the legend herself, and that was
fun. I taught her all the important rules that most Americans forget like
„willn‘t“ „you’re & your being freely interchangeable“ and a couple other
good ones I forgot.
We
also had a lesson with a man from Afghanistan which went quite well. He’s a
little crazy, but there might be something there. We invited him to church, and
he did end up coming during the last 15 minutes of church just to come tell us
he’s feeling sick so he can’t come haha. لِگِند.
The best news of our week was when our good friend Faiz got back into contact
with us. We were quite worried for him that something happened and somehow he
couldn’t get ahold of us but everything’s okay. He is dealing with family
problems and needed some alone time to deal with it. We are grateful that he’s
back with us and that we can now continue helping him towards baptism. The Lord
does miracles.
In
the Book of Mormon Book of Moroni chapter 7:29, we read And
because he hath done this, my beloved brethren, have miracles ceased? Behold I
say unto you, Nay; neither have angels ceased to minister unto the children of
men. We still see miracles daily. Pray for yourself to be able to see the
miracles that we could be able to see every day and there will be a difference.
